6.45 am and I was on the phone to the AA to check recovery details. No sitting on hold fortunately. 9 o’clock today she said. NO I said. She checked the recovery company details and it was Monday. So I can relax today, I said. Yes, she replied.

I’d just set off for Waterhead when the recovery company phoned. Can we collect today? I replied that I’d prefer to leave it until Monday as arranged. That’s fine he said. We’ll be with you around 9 o’clock.

I plodded along to Waterhead where these bikers had lined up for a photoshoot.
